underwater footage of red emperor and trout

 

Here's a little clip I took dropping a gopro in 60 metres off Cairns.  You see a nice Coral trout take the bait and spit it out, then a Red Emperor around 8kg get hooked and come to the boat.  Interesting to watch the shark hanging around too.  Must have been just not confident enough on the day...

That wasn't bad clarity down there. I gather it was a nice chunk of occy on the hook. Certainly lucky the shark wasn't hungry
